Seeing that Lu Li did not say anything, Shadow Queen asked, "What?
Are you not convinced? "
"Yes!"
Lu Li was not convinced. That being said, he knew very well that the Hua Yang Seminar was organized by the Holy Lady Sect and they were the ones who set the rules. He had to be convinced.
The main reason was that Lu Li did not sign up through the normal channels. There was no other way. The Hua Yang Seminar was organized by the Holy Lady Sect and the prizes were given out by them.
"Okay!"
Shadow Queen turned to the patriarch of the Holy Lady Sect who shouted, "Since Feng Wuding … no, Lu Li has been disqualified, then the first place belongs to Hua Tiandao, Wen Xiang, Dong Yeying, and so on."
Hua Tiandao had picked up a bargain and won the first place.
But when the news spread out, it would be a joke. After all, he did not win the first place based on his abilities. He had picked it up from the ground.
Shadow Queen and the others felt there was nothing they could do. This time, the Hua Yang Seminar was messed up by Lu Li. It was not as interesting as before. All the young masters felt it was a joke.
The Celestial Emperor Sect did not take part. A disciple sneaked in and won the first place easily. This was a slap to the faces of many forces.
The Holy Lady Sect was embarrassed. They had planned to ally with the other forces to deal with the Celestial Emperor Sect but they were disrupted by a random disciple from the Celestial Emperor Sect.
But on the surface, nobody could do anything to Lu Li. The patriarch of the Holy Lady Sect had to follow the procedure and began to award the prizes to Hua Tiandao and the others.
Lu Li took the initiative to return the pellets he gave to the disciples of the Holy Lady Sect.
But to many people's confusion, Lu Li did not leave.
Theoretically speaking, the Holy Lady Sect was not responsible for pursuing Lu Li. Lu Li had made a name for himself and he had made a name for the Celestial Emperor Sect. Shouldn't he leave?
What was he going to do here?
Was he going to embarrass the Holy Lady Sect?
Or was he going to force the Holy Lady Sect to send him away?
Lu Li was in a hurry but he did not show it.
It was not that he wanted to stay. If Lu Ling and Xiang Linglong left with him, he would not want to stay here for one more second.
Besides, Blood Fairy had not come out yet. He could not just leave.
On second thought, Lu Li sent a message to Blood Fairy through spiritual link. It would be a great loss if Blood Fairy was left behind instead of Lu Ling and the others.
"Master, don't be anxious. I've made great progress!"
All of a sudden, Blood Fairy said. Lu Li frowned. He was unhappy. Why was Blood Fairy still here at a time like this?
What was the point of making progress?
What was the use of comprehending more Divine Inscriptions?
If she was sealed by the Shadow Queen, Blood Fairy could only become a weapon spirit.
Lu Li quickly said, "Don't worry about the progress. If you don't come out now, I'm afraid you will be sealed in Empress Peak and never be able to leave."
"I'm fine …"
Blood Fairy's words rendered Lu Li speechless. But what she said next made Lu Li tremble. Blood Fairy said, "Master, I am about to master the core of Mount Empress.
If you need it, I can help you refine Empress Peak and make this Sacred Weapon yours to use. "
"What?"
Lu Li was shocked. He could not believe it. Mount Empress was a Sacred Weapon with a powerful weapon spirit. How could Blood Fairy be in control of Mount Empress?
Blood Fairy could not attack. If that weapon spirit was enraged, Blood Fairy could be turned into ashes in an instant.
What was the purpose of an Artifact Spirit?
To protect the Relic Weapon and enhance its power at the same time.
If someone wanted to destroy the Relic Weapon, the weapon spirit would risk its life. This was not something that could be swayed with a few words. The duty of an Artifact Spirit was to protect the Relic Weapon. No words could sway an Artifact Spirit because it was not intelligent and was stubborn.
Lu Li was worried. He said at once, "Blood Fairy, don't do anything rash. You will be killed by that weapon spirit."
"It's okay …"
Blood Fairy said with certainty, "The real core of Mount Empress is not the weapon spirit, but the core of a formation.
The reason why the weapon spirit cannot come in is to suppress the weapon spirit.
I am in the core now, and I am confident that I can control it. Once I control the weapon spirit, the weapon spirit will be under my control as well. Mount Empress will be mine. "
"What?"
This time, Lu Li was pleasantly surprised. His eyes flickered. Almost at once, he made up his mind. "Blood Fairy, take control of this Mount of Empress as soon as possible and then fly it to me." He said to Blood Fairy.
"Okay!"
Blood Fairy replied, "Master, give me the time for two incense sticks to burn. I can take control of the core easily. I have learned all the patterns here. It will not be difficult."
Lu Li suppressed his excitement. He sat in the outdoor pavilion and pretended to be tending to his wounds. In fact, he was in a trance.
He ignored the looks of hatred from the female and male disciples and sat there leisurely.
Queen Shadow looked at Lu Li, feeling helpless. She looked at a patriarch who ignored Lu Li and began to hand out the prizes and rewards.
The contest had come to an end. The spectators should have left by now. However, they were still not satisfied. Lu Li was still there. Somehow, they felt something was going to happen.
Maybe, they wanted to see the higher-ups of the Holy Lady Sect kill or capture Lu Li so that the Heaven Emperor Sect would be enraged.
The award ceremony was grand. Queen Shadow and several great emperors gave out the prizes in person. However, everyone, including Hua Tiandao, felt it was boring. They felt their faces were burning.
Dong Yeying unexpectedly made it to the Top 3. But he was not happy at all.
He wanted to see Lu Li killed by the Holy Lady Sect or at least captured.
That being said, he had some extravagant hope. He was the third. He hoped that he could marry either Lu Ling or Ling Long. In that case, at least, he would have some comfort.
He could abuse her every day. That would be a pleasant thing.
Soon, the award ceremony was over. The seminar at Mount Hua Yang had come to an end.
The patriarch of the Holy Lady Sect announced that the contest was a complete success. The spectators began to leave and go back to the City of Holy Lady. Only important guests were invited to stay for the banquet.
A disciple of the Holy Lady Sect walked to Lu Li under the signal of a patriarch and said coldly, "Young Master Lu, the discussion on Mount of Hua Yang is over. You can leave now. You are not our honored guest, so …"
Lu Li opened his eyes. He grinned and said, "Pretty lady, I am going to recover soon. Can you give me the time for one incense stick to burn?"
"No!"
The disciple said coldly, "Please leave now or we will have to force you out."
"You of the Holy Lady Sect are so rude!"
Lu Li rolled his eyes. He kept on wasting time with the disciple. After a while, a patriarch of the Holy Lady Sect grew impatient. She walked over and said coldly, "Young Master Lu, please behave yourself. You are no longer our honored guest. Please leave the Mount Hua Yang."
Lu Li wanted to buy some more time. The patriarch of the Holy Lady Sect took out her weapon. It seemed that she would force Lu Li out if he did not leave.
Lu Li was troubled. Right at that moment, Blood Fairy finally said, "Master, it's done!"
"Okay!"
